Our family favorite cooking apple is the old fashioned Gravenstein variety.

Instead of baking coffee cake in a baking dish or cake pan, make coffee cake in a prepared 9 x 5 inch loaf pan; bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean; let cool completely before removing from loaf pan.
